Monthly medicines update

Summary of new marketing authorisations and changes to existing authorisations that relate to the safe use of the product

A rolling 6 month summary with the most recent one first.


Our Product Information Database (PID) is your primary resource for the most current information about all veterinary medicines authorised in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. As product details change we update the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) and label text there. Please note there may be a delay before formal documentation is available for some Northern Ireland products. 

It may take up to 12 months for changes to appear on marketed packaging. 


Products are authorised separately in Great Britain and Northern Ireland although authorisations may be aligned if they are the same product held by the same authorisation holder. This may mean that products are authorised or changed on different timescales in each territory.


Also find here a list of specific Pregnancy Warnings which we update quarterly.

    Territory / Distribution catgory: NI, POM-V

    Authorisation holder: Vetoquinol UK Ltd

    Change Category: Contraindications, Special warnings

    Summary of change:  

    Section 3.3: Do not use in cases of bronchospasm or gastrointestinal dysmotility.

    Section 3.4: The response of sows and gilts to induction of parturition may be influenced by the physiological state at the time of treatment. The vast majority of the animals, 95%, will commence farrowing within 36 hours of treatment. The majority of animals can be expected to respond within the period of 24+/- 5 hours following the injection, except in those cases where spontaneous parturition is imminent.

    Section 3.5: To reduce the risk of anaerobic infections arising from vasoconstriction at the injection site, injections into contaminated (wet or dirty) skin areas should be avoided. Thoroughly clean and disinfect injection sites prior to administration.

    Injection into adipose tissue may lead to incomplete absorption of the veterinary medicinal product. 

    Premature induction of farrowing will reduce the piglet`s birth weight and increase the number of stillborn piglets and non-viable and immature born piglets. It is essential that the mean length of gestation is calculated on each farm from past records and not to anticipate the term of gestation by more than two days.

    Do not administer intravenously.

    Section 3.7: Pregnancy: Do not administer to pregnant animals unless the objective is to terminate the pregnancy. 

    Fertility: There is no effect on the subsequent reproductive performance of sows treated with cloprostenol and of gilts or boars born from treated animals.

    Section 3.8: In animals to which a progestogen is being administered, a decrease in the response of cloprostenol can be expected.

Contact between treated, infected and untreated herds must be avoided until at least seven days after treatment.

    Resistance to moxidectin has been reported in Psoroptes ovis scab mites in sheep and in cattle. Cases of side-resistance with other macrocyclic lactones (ivermectin and doramectin) have been reported as well. The use of this product should take into account local information about susceptibility of the target parasites, where available.
